Stranger danger for children...Our little children are so innocent but so vulnerable to the wicked at the same time. Whenever I hear a news announcement or a television Amber Alert...I cringe inside and feel a pain I cannot explain to anyone. How any human being can take an innocent child and perform terrible acts on them, and in a lot of cases, ends up killing them is not a human. They are an animal who should not be walking our streets. They need to be incarcerated without a chance for parole for the rest of their natural life.
Since these predators have "no" feelings for the most innocent in our world, how could they have any feelings for anyone in this world? Do you think these people should be a part of our society? I say, "People who mistreat a child in any way, shouldn't have the rights as a citizen to live among society ever again." I do not believe they can be cured of this trait they have in their genes. Once they have committed one of these crimes, there will be another and another until something terrible happens to one of the children they are abusing.
We can warn our children and teach them not to talk or go to a stranger, but these type predators think of other ways to earn the confidence of our children. They'll find a way to get to them regardless how much we try to protect them. They'll break into our homes at early morning hours and take our children from their beds or get to them when they get off of their school buses. Those who have these sort of evil minds always find a way to get to our children. They are like hungry animals who must be fed, and they will not stop until their hunger is satisfied.
Many have been treated but do they stop these acts of violence against our children? No, they get back out on our streets and start their conniving ways to get to our children either via the Internet or via other means. I do not believe anyone who has or has a desire to perform or do an act of violence against children will ever be able to be allowed in our society.
We cannot be too careful with our children and the people who "we" associate with either. Many people who "we" are in constant contact with and trust with our children, wear false faces, and "we" had better take notice and check out these people before we leave our children home alone with them. People who wear false faces do harm to our children too, and many times, it is not known for years.
